Tizen gear web app, launch web app with text data

Question

I have a watch face that launches another app using the code below:

var appId ="aGbGC3smHe.apptwo"; // app to be launched 

tizen.application.launch(appId); 

It works, but I want to send text from the watch face to the second app and have the second app do something with it like below

if (senttext === "hello"){
console.log("hello")
}

I saw this code which I think might be half the answer but I dont know how to deal with the text at the other end....

var appControl = new tizen.ApplicationControl("http://tizen.org/appcontrol/operation/share",null,"text/*",null ,[new tizen.ApplicationControlData("text", [message])]);

tizen.application.launchAppControl(appControl, null,function()console.log("launch application control succeed");
},function(e) {alert("ERROR")});

can I please know how to do this in Tizen Web? ... Thank you :)

You may try the steps below:

1. Use the code below in the Watch Application(Watch face app)

 var obj = new tizen.ApplicationControlData("Paste_Your_Watch_Face_APP_ID_Here", ["Hello"]); var obj1 = new tizen.ApplicationControl("http://tizen.org/appcontrol/operation/default", null, null, null, [obj] ); tizen.application.launchAppControl(obj1, "aGbGC3smHe.apptwo", function() {console.log("Launch Service succeeded"); }, function(e) {console.log("Launch Service failed : " + e.message);}, null); 

2. Use the code below in the second app. Now, if you click on the word "Basic" it'll show the data sent from the Watch App.

  var mainPage = document.querySelector('#main'); mainPage.addEventListener("click", function() { var contentText = document.querySelector('#content-text'); var reqAppControl = tizen.application.getCurrentApplication().getRequestedAppControl(); if (reqAppControl) { var reqData = reqAppControl.appControl.data; for (var i = 0; i < reqData.length; i++) { console.log("#" + i + " key:" + reqData[i].key); for (var j = 0; j < reqData[i].value.length; j++) { console.log(" value#" + j + ":"+reqData[i].value[j]); // Process the data contentText.innerHTML = reqData[i].value[j]; } } } }); 

Hope it'll help!
